2005 DODGE MAGNUM Complaints

WHEN THE GAS TANK IS FILLED, THE MOTOR CUTS OUT AND STALLS WHEN DRIVING, I HAVE TO KEEP THE TANK AT HALF WAY TO AVOID THIS. MY WIFE FILLED IT UP AND IT STALLED ON HER WHILE SHE WAS MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN IN TRAFFIC. MY CHILD WAS IN THE CAR AS WELL. IT APPEARS THAT THIS ORGANIZATION AS WELL AS CHRYSLER WAS AWARE OF THIS SITUATION. I NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION AND HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH IT FOR SOME TIME NOW. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AS MY WHOLE FAMILY WAS AT STAKE! PLEASE ADVISE THE NEXT COURSE OF ACTION. I AM GOING TO CONTACT MY LOCAL DEALER AS A START. ATTACHING A NEWS ARTICLE ON THE SITUATION..

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE MAGNUM. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND TURNED OFF, IT REVERSED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE THE GEAR WAS IN PARK. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ROLL IN REVERSE. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE HAD TO BE APPLIED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 05V460000 (POWER TRAIN). CERRITOS DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (18803 STUDEBAKER RD, CERRITOS, CA 90703, (562) 402-5335) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

05 DODGE MAGNUM HAVING FUEL ISSUES AFTER PUTTING GAS IN THE CAR. WON'T START ON FIRST OR 3RD TIME, IMPROPER FUEL READING AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING SITTING STILL OR JUST RUNNING IN THE YARD. THE CAR STALLS AFTER FILLING UP MOSTLY. THE GAS LIGHT COMES ON AFTER FILLING UP, WHILE DRIVING IT, SITTING STILL. IT NO CERTAIN TIME OR THING FOR THE LIGHT TO COME ON OR FOR THE VEHICLE TO STALL. A STRONG ODAR OF GAS AFTER YOU FILL UP. I NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH GAS IS REALLY IN THE CAR. I'VE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMPS ON BOTH SIDES. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON BEFORE THE CAR STARTS, WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING IT, OR SITTING AT A LIGHT. I HAVE THE LIGHT TESTED AND IT COMES BACK TO THE FUEL PUMPS. I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS PROBLEM FOR LIKE A MONTH NOW. THE PROBLEM CONTINUE AFTER REPLACING BOTH SIDE OF THE FUEL PUMP.

THE SHIFT CONTROLLER IS STUCK IN PARK. THIS IS NOT A NEW ISSUE FOR THE MANUFACTURER. THE MECHANIC ORDERED PART WHICH SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE 3 WEEKS AGO AND NOW THEY SAY NOV/DEC. THE WARRANTY CO TRIED TO GET THE PART AND IT CAME BACK SAYING JANUARY 2019. SO, EVERYONE'S REQUEST IS GOING TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE GIVEN A BOGUS DATE. ANOTHER CAR (CHRYSLER) HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A MONTH DUE TO THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. THE CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED BECAUSE YOU CANNOT MOVE IT. IT IS A PROBLEM WITH GETTING IT TOWED AS WELL. SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG THAT THESE PARTS ARE NOT BEING RECALLED AFTER BEING WITNESS TO THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. ITS A DISGRACE!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 DODGE MAGNUM. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE GEAR SHIFTER WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 179,520.

RIGHT FRONT BALL JOINT FELL OFF THE CAR AS I WAS ABOUT TO CHANGE THE TIRE. MY NEIGHBOR WITNESSED THE EVENT. HE SAID HE HAD NEVER SEEN SUCH A THING IN 40+ YEARS. I HAD TO RENT A PRESS TO REATTACH. EARLIER IN THE DAY, MY WIFE HAD MENTIONED SHE HEARD A SQUEAKING NOISE WHEN SHE TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL. THANK THE HEAVENS WE WERE NOT DRIVING THE CAR WHEN IT HAPPENED.

AFTER FILLING MY CAR WITH GAS IT RUNS ROUGH AND STALLS SEVERAL TIMES WHILE MOVING. AFTER RESTARTING IT SEVERAL TIMES IT SEEMS OK UNTIL THE NEXT TIME I FILL THE GAS AGAIN. WHEN IT STALLS IT SOUNDS LIKE THE DRIVETRAIN IS MESSING UP. IT DOES THIS CITY HIGHWAY TURNING OR STRAIGHT. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING REGULARLY FOR AT LEAST 6 WEEKS ONLY RIGHT AFTER FILLING AND SPORADICALLY FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS OR MORE.

I HAVE A 2005 DODGE MAGNUM AND I WENT INTO THE CLEANERS TO DROP MY CLOTHES OFF. I WENT IN THE CLEANERS AND CAME OUT AND ATTEMPTED TO START MY CAR AND IT WOULDN'T START. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP. I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE SHOP AND THE MECHANIC STATED IT WAS MY ENGINE WAS OUT. I THINK ITS THE TIMING CHAIN. I SEEN RECALLS FOR MY ENGINE BUT THEY STATE ITS FOR THE NEWER VERSION OF THE HEMI BUT I THINK ITS ALL THE SAME RECALL. I GET MY CAR MAINTENANCE AT THE DODGE DEALERSHIP AND I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ENGINE PROBLEMS, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS , LOSS AF POWER. THERE WERE LITERALLY NO SIGNS. I HAD GOT MY OIL CHANGED AT THE DEALERSHIP WITHIN A MONTH OF THE INCIDENT.

AFTER FILLING UP GAS TANK CAR WILL STALL OUT. BIG SAFETY CONCERN, CAR STALLED WHILE MAKING A TURN ON CITY STREET, LOSE POWER STEERING VERY DANGEROUS. HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL UP GAS TANK.

NO1 HEAD LIGHTS AND DASH LIGHTS FLICKER AND GO ON AND OFF CONTINUELY.WHEN DRIVING. NO2 STEPING ON BRAKES AT A LIGHT SHUTS DOWN THE ENGINE.
